Hey, cant expect perfection on the first time out, thankfully it was something that ended up being not catastrophic.

I know you guys will get her running! Congrats on getting her out anyway Brian. Im sure regardless of the minor set back, it was still an amazing feeling!

It is amazing how many problems you've had with the BS3 box.

Don't feel bad , i forgot to put the pins on my two minute old hood ( just got it from the paintshop ) just before taking the car out for a test ride ,,,,, who knew hoods can fly that high

any plans on changing the BS3 to something else??

No...it just decided to modify a table when I started with someone's tune for a baseline for no apparent reason which caused the glitch.

I never went into that table and it changed one row...which caused alot of headaches

That sucks to hear Brian! Hope you get it figured out soon....

Light hoods are nice for weight savings but not on windy days.

It sucks for sure! We both had very expensive debuts this year. Hopefully you can get her up and running again soon.

Any clue as to how or why it did that? I would like to know because I would be throwing my box through someones front window for that one.
